George was the first one to wake.
Eyes squinted as they tried to adjust to the new found light.
What he didn't expect though was to see Clay.
With his blonde hair all ruffled up. It just looked soft to the touch. George watched as the blond's nostrils flared slightly, matching with his slow breathing pattern.
Without even thinking, the brunette slowly raised his hand up. He began to lightly trace his fingertips against Clay's freckles that were scattered across his cheeks. There were so many that George began to count them all.
"...1....2...3..", he says.
The brunette was so focused he forgot to lower his voice as he continued, causing Clay to stir awake.
He flutters his eyes slightly as he opened them. "What are you doing?", he asks the brunette with a slight chuckle.
"Counting"
"What are you counting?"
"..11..12..your freckles...15.."
The blond smiles. But suddenly pulls George closer to him. "Hey! You made me lose count", the brunette says in a hushed yell.
"You and I both know we would be here for hours if you were to finish", Clay responds as he rests his chin on George's head.
"What if...I wanted to be here for hours?"
There was a slight pause.
"Then we can be here for hours", Clay says as he began to rub the brunette's back gently.
After a few moments of silence Clay felt something against his neck. "What are you doing now?", he asks as he backs away to look down.
"Whaat it's a pretty necklace!", George says with the necklace in his hand.
Clay then smiles to an idea.
He slowly reaches a hand over to George's face, cupping it.
"W-what are y-you doing?", the brunette says.
"Whaat it's a pretty face"
George turns his head away. "Stop", he says as he feels the blood rush to his face.
"Do you really want me to stop"
"..No.."
"That's what I thought", Clay says with a smug look. He then brings George close again.
But right when they both began to relax in each other's presence-
Squeakk!
—
The rest of the day was pretty chill for the both of them.
When George was done feeding Milo he brought him back where him and Clay were. They decided to play a movie as they cuddled together.
Patches even joined later on but only stayed for awhile.
"Do you want to go somewhere tomorrow?", Clay suddenly asks.
"Where?"
"Remember when you told me your favorite ice cream place. I want to go try it out"
"Sure, I'll get my parents to watch Milo", George says as he looks up at Clay.
"Sounds good"
The blond had his arm around George's shoulder while he had his legs draped over Clay's.
George looks back down at Milo who was sleeping on his lap. "What do you want to do now", the blond asks as he shuts off the tv.
"Nothing really..I just want to stay here with you.."
With a huge smile on his face, Clay wraps his arms around the boy and began slightly rock him back and forth.
"Clay! You're going to make Milo fall"
"Then put him back in his box"
George carefully picks up the sleeping bunny and sets him down in his box that was on the floor in front of him.
Once he tucked Milo in his blanket, Clay suddenly repositioned so he was able to throw himself onto of the brunette.
"Clay get off of me!"
"No"
George tried his best to lift the blond up by pushing on his shoulders but he wouldn't move an inch.
"Who would have thought you'd be such a cuddle person", the brunette says sarcastically as he sighs in defeat.
George slowly reaches a hand up to the blond's head that rested on his chest. He began to gently comb his fingers through his hair.
It was incredibly soft just like how George thought it was.
Clay lets out a relaxed sigh as the brunette continued to play with his hair.
After a few minutes of the brunette doing so, he hears Clay begin to silently snore. "You got to be kidding me", George thinks aloud.
"Clay?", he says as he tries to shake the other awake.
"Clay please don't tell me you fell sleep"
The brunette never got a response.
Instead just some light breathing from the blond.
George was officially stuck.
Just great.
Well might as well to go sleep myself.
The brunette thought.
So he did.
